HT1414 Can I restore my phone list without losing the new data I have saved?

Hi all,
my iphone packed it up and I took it back and got a new one under warranty.
The first time I used it I synced it at work and not on my home computer.
Anyhow I want to get all my contacts back off my home computer.
Can I do this without losing all the new data I have installed?
How do you do it if you can?
Thanks
Pedro

You can Restore over the air without a computer but make sure you have a complete iCloud backup first.
Before you got this route, have you tried a Reset? Hold down the sleep and home buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons. if this fixes your issues skip the Restore.
If it does not you will need to go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Contensts and Settings.
After doing this you will be in Setup Assistant and follow this link:

If you sign out it will be removed from the phone (but not from the icloud account)
What are you trying to achieve here, why change your email address?

Jill, you should start your own thread.

How can I temporarily remove games from my iPhone without losing the app data included?

My iPhone 5 is running low on space so I plan on cleaning it out soon. I have a lot of games on my iPhone with app data included that I don't play as often. I was planning on removing these temporarily because some day I might want to play them again but I'm afraid I won't have my progress anymore. Ex: My levels conquered on Cut The Rope or my worlds on Minecraft PE.
So is there a solution out there for me to be able to temporarily remove my games without losing their app data? All feedback is greatly appreciated and I how there is a way to do this!

The only way to recover the data for a deleted app would be to restore from a backup made before you deleted the app. Apps and their data are integral to eachother, so deleting one deletes the other.
If you have a backup, you could restore from that to restore an App's data, but a restore is also an all or nothing option - the restore will restore everything to the state of the backup, not single or selective items.
Other than that, there is no way to acheive what you wish - if you delete the app you delete its data.

I have an old ipod that got put through the washer. I want to restore it but i already have a new ipod. How can i restore my old ipod without losing all of my new itunes songs?

I accidently put my old 2nd generation Ipod nano through the washer a few years ago. Well after that it would no longer work do to water damage. After a while i got a new Ipod (the same type) and was able to get new songs to put on it and what not. Well i was playing around with the one i washed opne day and found that i could still restore it on iTunes. However, it wont let me restore it without losing all of my music and what not that i got for the new one. I would like to continue to use the old one, but I am afraid of losing all of my current stuff. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how i can restore the old and keep the new? I am in desperate need.

Well, two thoughts.
The battery has completely discharged and will take overnight to recharge, so don't expect much in an hour.
The battery has deep discharged and is now dead. It will never recharge and should be replaced.

Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.
The flat fee for a battery exchange is, I believe, $99.00 USD.

Is there a way i can add music from my computer without deleting the music i alread have from a different computer?

No. iTunes will first erase everything from another computer. It is designed to work that way.

Can't add photos to ipod without losing the ones that are already on it

I have a nano (bought about 1 year ago) so am not sure of the generation. I was able to add photos before, but when I tried to add more this morning it erased all the old ones and will only load the current ones. How can I keep all my photos without having them erase everytime I add new ones?
Thanks

you need to have the same computer the same folder where you put your pictures like a folder on your Desktop on a mac or a pc.
But if you wan't to have your pictures on your iPod cache folder select the checkbox below, it's Include Full resolution photos, by clicking that, the photos you'll put on your iPod will have a copy on a folder of your iPod i.e.
When using win xp:
Find your iPod on my computer: "Steve's iPod"-> open it-> go to Photos-> Full Resolution-> then continue opening folders (it's safe) until you see your Photo copies.
It's a great way of moving it from another computer, like just using copy, cut, paste

HT4972 I have ipad version 4.3.2. I have music on there that I want to keep. when I go to itunes i cannot backup those music. how can i update to ios 7 without losing the music?

I have ipad version 4.3.2 and I want to update to ios7. However, I cannot backup my musics on itune. How can I update without losing my musics?

Updating will not cause you to lose data but things can always go wrong. You should definitely backup before you update. I assume you have music on the device that was not purchased in iTunes and synced with a different iTunes library. You can transfer these songs back to your computer with third party software such as TouchCopy.

How do I sync my old ipod to my "new" iTunes library without losing the music I already have loaded onto my iPod?

Hi, so I got my new computer loaded up with iTunes and I want to be able to move my music from my old iPod to my new iTunes library without losing any of the music I already have placed on the iPod. How would I do this? And please I'm not too savvy with the new iTunes layout and such so if you could make this easy in layman's terms that would be great.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you purchased all songs in the iTunes Store, plug your iPod to your Mac or PC and iTunes will ask you to transfer purchases.
If you didn't purchase any song or you have non-purchased songs from the iTunes Store, you have to use an application to transfer the songs to iTunes. Here is a list of applications you can use for that > https://discussions.apple.com/message/11319208#11319208

Auto Refreshing without losing the existing data

I am opening a new window from the main page to create a new category in the SQL database.I want the new category to get automatically added to the main page when I close the new window, without resetting the datas which I had entered in the main page.Is it possible??? Pls. Help.

hi Prasanth,
This is a lil bit different one.
I have a servlet generated Html page called Initial and I'm calling it in the browser.This page displays different categories taken from the DB and I have to enter values for each of this categories and then I submit it to the same servlet ie Initial.java, this servlet will then add these values to a table in the DB corresponding to the diff. categories.
Now inorder to allow the user to create a new category while entering the values, I've given a hyperlink which will open a small window from the Initial page itself and allows the user to give a new cat. and submit it. This small window(another servlet generated Html : NewCategory.java), is submitted to itself which will then add this new cat. to the DB.
ie it is not submitted to the First one: Initial
Now , what I want is , when the user adds a new cat. and close the small window this newly added one should also b there in the main page, without affecting the early entered values.Is this possible???
(As 'insoft' has mentioned, if I submit the small window: NewCategory to Initial, then it'll create a whole lot of mess as I have to do a lot of other things in both of these servlet.And it'll b uncomfortable for the user also. But if there is no other way I'll have to try that).
Do u have any suggestions!!!Pls. do.
Regards Anu

Can I restore a deleted playlist, without using the time machine?

I have deleted my playlist, and cannot restore it. My time machine is not on, the playlist has been deleted from my iPhone, and importing the iTunes music library does't work.

Unless there is an "undo" feature and the playlist deletion is still in it, probably no. The playlist is the part of the library file which iTunes continuously updates as you do things to iTunes. Was this something you did just now? iTunes creates a second library file that can be used to rebuild a library. I can't remember if it gets re-written when iTunes starts or if it is when it shuts down. If you can make a copy of the iTunes Library.xml file in your iTunes folder it may be possible to work from that, but it will not be a simple process.

How can I re-download my game without losing the data?

My data is saved on iCloud, but how do I re-download my games again without starting all over? On my device or desktop?

Product updates
The above link will take you to the Adobe Product updates site. From there you should be able to find the appropriate download for the version of Lightroom you purchased.
If you purchased the Photographers package subscription for Photoshop CC and Lightroom you would have to download through the Adobe Creative Cloud Application Manager.

Can I upgrade my texting plan without losing my unlimited data?

I've got the old 250 texts for $5 (which doesn't seem to be a choice they offer anymore) and was wondering if I bumped it up to the 1000 for $10 if that would constitute me changing my plan and have my unlimited data stripped from me. If not, could I make the change over the website or should I go into a Verizon store?

Correct, the 250-text plan is no longer available, so if you bump up to the 1000-text plan and later want to downgrade, you won't be able to.
Changing your text plan shouldn't affect your data plan and yes, you can make the change yourself via your on-line MyVerizon account. Be sure to make any changes retroactive to the beginning of your billing cycle to avoid pro-ration.

How do i add songs to my ipod from another computer without losing the music i already have on it from the original computer?

i want to connect my ipod to a friends computer to get some of her songs on my ipod. every time i do this tho it deletes the songs i already had on my ipod from the original computer. how do i get this to work? please help

When you connect the ipod and are prompted to erase and sync....just click cancel. Then click the ipod name below devices in the itunes source pane. From the ipod summary screen you want to check manually manage music and videos under the options tab. Apply the changes and you are now set to manually sync. Which means you just drag and drop the music you want to sync to your ipod below devices in the itunes source pane. Refer to this for more detailed instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
